Transformers: War for Cybertron Announced for Netflix in 2020

Netflix and Hasbro have partnered with Austin-based production company Rooster Teeth to bring Transformers: War For Cybertron to the streaming service in 2020. The series will come with a new animation look and style that presents the shape-shifting robots as you’ve never seen them before.

“We’re thrilled to work with Rooster Teeth’s new premium studio division to bring an all-new Transformers fan-oriented series to Netflix,” said Tom Warner, Senior Vice President for the Transformers franchise for Hasbro. “Transformers has a rich history of great storytelling and War for Cybertron is an exciting new chapter in the Transformers Universe.”

The Transformers have seen quite the resurgence since their first live-action movie back in 2007. There’s the stand-alone series Transformers: Cyberverse, which currently airs on the Cartoon Network, the upcoming Prime Wars trilogy, featuring Mark Hamill and Ron Perlman, and the most recent big-screen adventure, Bumblebee, seems to have endeared audiences with its re-approach to the franchise.
